Quality Low-Hydrogen Electrode with Welds of X-Ray Integrity

EutecTrode 66N ®

WELDING
• Superior arc stability with virtually spatter-free metal
transfer
• “N” formulation enables all diameters to be operated at
lower amperage levels
• Deposits have moderately heavy slag, which is extremely
easy to remove
 DESCRIPTION:
EutecTrode 66N is an all-position electrode with excellent
bead control, crack resistance and mechanical properties.
66N is suitable for most carbon and low-alloy steels, includ-
ing use as a scavenger of “tramp” elements in the welding
of high sulfur or phosphorous bearing steels.
WELDING PARAMETERS:
Preparation: Clean all weld surfaces, paying particular
attention to removing grease, oil and rust. Prepare joints
mechanically or use Xuper®ExoTrode® surface preparation
electrodes to scarf open a nominal 60° “V”. Lightly grind
or brush surfaces to remove slag, oxides and debris which
might contaminate the weld.

Preheat and Interpass Temperatures: Temperature ranges are

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS: determined from both the carbon and alloy content of the
base metal. For some low alloy, high-tensile steels, a preheat
• General boiler welding of 500° F (260° C) is recommended.
• Ship hull construction
• Pressure vessels and connections Welding: Maintain a short to medium arc length and avoid
• Heavy-duty equipment contact welding. Deposit stringer beads of no more than two
• Metal-production fabrication times the electrode diameter. Back-whip all craters.

Use of Run-off tabs is highly recommended to avoid stop-
